STATE OF AFFAIRS
GUNPOWDER INTRODUCED! SELECTIVE EMBARGO EMPLACED!
The Islamic Turks have sweet-talked the Chinese into selling their guns. The Turks have also placed an embargo on the Far Eastern trade, forcing all caravans to reroute through their territory. The Turks will have to be consulted if one desires such power as the guns and the luxuries of the Far East.
The Russians have acquired roughly 150 units of Chinese guns, however further ties have been severed.
These new weapons, deemed unfit to enforce just causes and wage wars, have been forbidden by the Church. As a result, the Pope denounces the Turks, warning the world they are not to be trusted. These weapons, however, would give a man--a nation, even--the power needed to cleanse this forsaken continent of any who would foolishly oppose him.
